> the [Fix Positions] button is redundant. > pressing [Save Order] should fix position before saving. Agree here. I’m not sure if there’s a good reason for it that I’m unaware of, but it definitely seems redundant when I’ve used it. > [@BlackKnob](#): > > drag-&-drop for reordering would probably be more intuitive thank arrows I’m not so sure about that, drag and drop interfaces can be _incredibly annoying_ especially with very long lists. Some sites may have dozens of categories, and scrolling while dragging and finding the correct place to drop can be frustrating. If I have a list of 50 items and I want to move item 49 to position 1, it’s _much_ easier to use the number input. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/category-reordering-ux-could-be-simpler/83171)._
